Thanks Jerry, the shutdown problem cleared on a reboot, I've turned the floating logo off, the portfolio window opened within the screen, and all is right with the world again!

Problem with the update - when I try to install it, the updater gets stuck in shutting down MT. Tried it twice, let it sit there with the "shutting down" message for three or four minutes, then cancelled. But can't restart without going in to Task manager and cancelling MT.exe process first. Build is 1.0.6668.1545.

Open Portfolio window - yes, I can force the window below the button, but only by moving the dashboard partly off the top of the screen, to make enough room for the window below the button. The size of the window seems to be an issue. Maybe this would work better if the window was of variable size, depending on the number of portfolios. I have one, and there's an awful lot of empty real estate in the window. Logo - my suggestion is to remove it, because it doesn't add anything extra to what I can do with the entry in the taskbar (don't know if this still applies to win8?), and gets in the way too often.

When I click the "Open a Portfolio" button with the dashboard positioned where it lands after startup, the portfolio window opens so high it is off the top of the screen, and the list of portfolios are not visible. I have to drag the dashboard right to the bottom of the screen before clicking the "Open a Portfolio" button, then the portfolio selection window just sneaks on to the screen. It appears the portfolio selection window is always positioned to sit just above the "Open a Portfolio" button, without regard to the location of the dashboard on the screen. And having the logo seemingly coupled to the RHS of the dashboard is a damned nuisance. I move the logo out of the way, then I open the dashboiard and have to move it to get to the portfolio window, so the logo follows the dashboard and is now in the lower half of my screen - and it stays there when I minimise the dashboard, so I have to move it out of the way again. Extremely irritating! John
